Manchester United 3-2 Southampton: Premier League - Player Ratings

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side looked to be heading for a fourth home game in a row without a win in all competitions after James Ward-Prowse converted a superb free-kick.

The standard of refereeing on show was distinctly sub-par with two relatively obvious penalty shouts turned down for the Saints.

While United remain unbeaten in the league under Solskjaer, Saints are worryingly close to the trap door after an afternoon when several decisions went against Ralph Hasenhuttl's side. Although the defence were guilty of giving away a late goal, the whole team can be proud of their efforts in Manchester.

Lukaku was twice denied by Angus Gunn in the first five minutes, although United's early rhythm was disrupted by treatment on a Scott McTominay head injury. "That dressing room is bouncing, full of belief and looking forward to Wednesday".

The Saints shocked Old Trafford when they took the lead when young French full-back Yan Valery scored a scorching goal in the 26th minute.

'We maybe could have had two penalties and at 2-0 up it would be much more hard for Man United, ' Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuettl said.

Speaking after the game, Lukaku proved why he was the ideal team-player, as he stated: "We knew we had to win the game today and did it". "We haven't checked it too much, it might be the ligament bad knock on his knee".

Sanchez joins a long injury list ahead of Wednesday's crunch Champions League last-16 second leg at Paris St Germain.

It was his first senior goal and what better place to score it.

"I think the badge speaks for itself when we talk about comebacks, desire and attitude, and for us it was just another game that we gave everything in".

"I just said to him there, "Get ready for the next one, because you're gonna take that as well", Solskjaer said. The second goal was offside, which isn't easy to stand.

"You could see after the 2-1 we didn't stop believing in ourselves and we didn't stop fighting for everything and working as a very good committed team".

"We need to have him more in front of the goal, but he has done fantastic in his work rate, attitude, he loves scoring goals, he smiles every day, he does extra shooting in training".
